Pros

Publix has benefits for part time as well as full time, great customers, and co workers. requesting time off is never a problem. Management is always willing to work with you

Cons

hours are terrible you might work early one day and late the next or for part time you could be scheduled 15 hours one week and 30 the next no consistency. They do not give coffee breaks. If you are lucky enough to get a coffee break they will call you right back after 2 minutes if there is a line. Sometimes even for part time you will get scheduled 10 hour with only 1 hour lunch and no coffee breaks makes a real long day in between.

Pros

Amazing 401K, free stock after one year of employment, health insurance is very good for part-time employees if only getting it for yourself, management always approves time off requests, hours are always available, will work around school schedules, tuition reimbursement program, will reimburse you for gas for work-related expenses as needed and will put you in a hotel as needed for work-related reasons that are more than 50 miles from your home.

Cons

Not every store is the same, some stores are run better than others, some managers look down upon people with disabilities, and some see people with disabilities the same as someone without disabilities, they are very big about favoritism, you have to work a lot to earn a vacation, the company does not give out sick time and full-time gets the most benefits and is next to impossible to get full-time. Also, you practically have to be a former employee with a clean record or related in some way to a current employee to get a job with the company though Kentucky Publix's don't quite function that way.
